How do golf simulators work?
Golf simulators are designed to replicate the experience of playing on an outdoor course within an indoor setting, using your own clubs and balls. When you take a swing and hit the ball towards a high-definition screen, sensors accurately capture data like speed, direction, and spin. This data is then quickly processed to simulate the ball's flight on the screen, showing where it lands on the virtual course. It’s a comprehensive system that lets you use every club in your bag, offering a detailed and realistic round of golf.
What components need regular replacement?
Certain parts of the simulator such as rubber tees, the screen, hitting mats, and projector lamps wear out over time and will need replacing. Need help with maintenance of your Golfzon simulator? Reach out to us and we'll be happy to assist you with procuring the items you need.
How does the Golfzon simulator capture the golf swing data?
Golfzon’s technology includes high-speed cameras focused on monitoring the dimples on the golf ball. This specific focus allows for precise measurement of all your shots, whether it’s a long drive or a short putt with consistent accuracy. Whether it’s a 320-yard drive or a 7-inch putt, you can measure every shot with extremely high accuracy.
What sets Golfzon simulators apart from others?
Golfzon simulators feature several distinctive technologies: Moving Swing Plates that simulate different playing surfaces, automatic ball tee-up, network capabilities for playing against others, a virtual guide for strategy, an LED guide for putting, immediate feedback with zero latency, and highly accurate simulations for short game shots.
Why does the TwoVision simulator include an online service fee?
The TwoVision model offers unique functions such as Network Play, Divot Sensing, 3 different play modes, and a Virtual Caddy. These special features require an online service fee to access, enhancing the overall simulation experience with advanced capabilities.
Are there golf driving ranges available?
Yes! Golfzon offers Golf Driving Range (GDR) software, which includes a range of driving and short game practice facilities. This software is a dedicated tool for honing your skills, compatible with both Vision Standard and GDR Standard systems, designed to support comprehensive practice sessions.
What type of swing data will I receive?
You’ll receive a detailed breakdown of your swing, including ball and club speed, spin rate, direction, and more. This data is crucial for analysing your performance and identifying areas for improvement.
How many golf courses does Golfzon have?
Golfzon provides access to over 200 courses, with new ones added regularly at no extra charge. This includes both real-world and unique virtual courses, offering a wide variety of golfing experiences without any subscription fees.
Does Golfzon offer other games?
While primarily focused on golf, Golfzon also includes a selection of arcade-style games that are played with a golf club and ball. These include fun variations like darts and blocks, adding an enjoyable alternative to traditional golf simulation.

How long until I can start playing on my Golfzon golf simulator after placing an order?
Typically, it takes about 3-5 weeks from the moment your order is confirmed to when you can tee off on your Golfzon golf simulator. However, in some cases, the expected delivery time can be longer subject to stock levels.
Can I install the Golfzon simulator myself?
While we'd like to assure you that installation is straightforward, Golfzon golf simulators are complex, featuring advanced components like a moving floor and Auto-tee system. Given their complexity, we highly recommend installation by specialised engineers or certified third-party installers to ensure everything is set up perfectly.
What is the cost associated with building out a space for the golf simulator?
The cost varies depending on local market conditions and the price of materials and labour in your area. We suggest connecting your general contractor with us. We will provide them with all the necessary details to understand the project scope and assist in delivering a more precise quote.
What should I do if my golf simulator requires servicing?
Our dedicated engineering team is available around the clock. Many service issues can be resolved remotely, eliminating the need for our engineers to visit your premises to diagnose or fix the problem.
What is the height of the golf simulator platform?
The height of the platform will be approximately 18.4 cm (7.25 inches), including the finishing material.
Who is responsible for constructing the golf simulator area?
We will supply your general contractor with comprehensive construction plans. Our installation engineers will then inspect the booth upon arrival to ensure it meets our standards before proceeding with the setup and calibration of your system.
Where are the cameras located in the golf simulator?
The placement of cameras varies by the model of the golf simulator. The TwoVision system incorporates two cameras: one on the ceiling and another on the kiosk. Meanwhile, the Vision Premium system utilises ceiling-mounted or T1 high-speed cameras, and the Vision Standard system is equipped with floor-mounted or T2 high-speed cameras.
